This is whats heppening right now. Strangly the psu fan doesnt move at all. The blade seemed to be powered, because i can access the configuration page. Cant figure out whats wront.

It looks like your chips aren't getting enough power. Status should be like:

Code:
Chip: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

And you have

Code:
Chip: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It seems that your PSU is providing enough power for the Ethernet / control logic to work, but not the chips. The fact that the PSU fan is not spinning is probably because your PSU is at very low load (since the Blades aren't hashing).

How did you power the Blades, i.e. how many +12V and GND lines for each Blades, how many Blades and wattage of your PSU?

I tried to wire it as in the OP, molex splitter, two yellow cables going to the + of the blade and four black to the -. I always considered myself somewhat sloppy when it comes to dealing with hardware, it is possible i have messed it up with screwing? there are 4 of these screws on the connecter, what should be their position?

Im using 550W PSU, i have two of those, decided to go with them because they have two 12v lines each. Heres the exact model http://www.super-flower.com.tw/products_detail.php?class=2&sn=12&ID=110&lang=en

Btw status CHIP:OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO is displayed even if not hashing?
